Our mission is to put the personality back into recruitment with meaningful interactions and exceptional service that candidates, clients and employees have confidence in.
For over 30 years, Bright Purple has been a trusted specialist in Technology and Transformation recruitment. Headquartered in Edinburgh, we operate internationally with a global workforce, partnering with organisations to deliver exceptional talent across permanent, contract and project-based solutions.
What sets us apart is the combination of cutting-edge recruitment technology with the personal touch of an organically grown, settled team. Many of our people started their careers here and progressed through the business, while others have returned after time away - a testament to the lasting relationships and culture we’ve built.
We are proud of our diverse and inclusive team, representing multiple nationalities and a balanced gender split. Collaboration, flexibility, and trust underpin everything we do, creating an environment where our people and clients thrive.
At Bright Purple, we believe in being more than recruiters - we’re real people with genuine values, delivering results with integrity and a track record that’s unmatched by most in our field.
Whether it’s scaling teams, driving transformation projects, or placing individual specialists, we bring the expertise, energy, and authenticity that make us a recruitment partner of choice and one you can enjoy partnering with.
Meet a Bright Purple Person
Our Sales Director, Kane, walked through our doors as a fresh junior and now sits on the Board of Directors. That’s the kind of career journey we love to champion.
We’ve welcomed apprentices, helped them build confidence and skills, and watched them rise through the ranks. We’ve brought in experienced recruiters and backed them to become senior leaders. And when people do move on (not that often, mind you!), we’re proud to have been part of their story — with more than a few boomerangs now back in the team.
Curious about what makes our culture tick? Kane shared his journey and Bright Purple’s way of working on the acclaimed Recruitment Mentors Podcast with Hishem Azzouz. It’s well worth a listen if you want the inside track on how we work, grow, and support our people.
We love what we do, and hope we will have the opportunity to show you why.
